Hey guys. Something I've been running into quite a bit is when you ask a girl out a lot of times I get "Who else is going?" or "Can I bring people?" or else assumes it's a group thing. And this occurs even with girls that I'm sure are into me.
It's puzzling. I know this is almost always a bad sign, but I don't want to next a woman just because she's just seeing if it's a date or not in an indirect way. How do you respond in these situations? Lately when a girl says this, I just don't bother anymore.
It's not a good sign especially if it's happening a lot.
It could be they see you only as a friend, could be the place you're asking them out to (group places like an amusement park) but it's most likely they don't want it to be seen as a personal "date" between you two.
If you have no problem with rejection just be straight up and tell them myself and you. If they make excuses, flake etc. don't worry about it.
It could be your looks, personality, how you dress etc. They just might not be attracted to you depending on how you look. We have no idea if you might be cool and they see you just as a friend but aren't attractive looking to these chicks where they'd want to go alone with you.
Do you dress well? Are you in shape? Are you short? It could even be your race and the types of chicks you're asking (out of your league as far as a couple date). It could be they barely know you, aren't "rejecting" you but want to warm up to you first and that could lead to a one on one date. There could be tons of reasons why.
At LEAST they didn't say NO straight up. So that's a good sign.
You have to be honest with yourself. No one knows you and no magic answer will automatically have women saying "yes" right away if they're all asking who else is going etc. We need more info on your looks, personality, do these chicks seem interested in you in more than friends at times or just being friendly?
If you don't have any issues you could think of but they are responding in that way just go out with the group. They may warm up to you or you may meet other chicks with them as having social proof. But that's if you don't care to go out with a group (if they "reject" you in that way). If you do go out with a group and they don't seem interested in you don't ask them again. It's not going to hurt though going out with a group that you might be able to use to your advantage.
We need more info on you though and why YOU think they're responding to you in that way.
